We understand that when someone close to you dies it can be a stressful time. Cleaver Thompson can help in this difficult period, as we offer you a full service with dealing with the administration of the estate from obtaining the grant of probate, collecting in assets, discharging liabilities, and distributing the estate to the beneficiaries. We offer a compassionate but honest approach to what can be a complex process.

A range of duties

Executors of an estate have to carry out a range of duties, such as:

​

  • Applying for letters of administration

  • Applying for the Grant of Probate

  • Preparing estate accounts

  • Paying debts and taxes

  • Collecting in the assets

  • Distributing to the beneficiaries

​

We will provide detailed advice and support on all these matters and ensure that they are completed efficiently.

Help and advice with a probate

A probate is needed to establish who is legally authorised to deal with the estate of the deceased person. It grants someone the legal right to distribute the estate, which includes money, property and possessions of the deceased person. If the deceased hasn’t left a Will and you wish to apply for probate, then we will be able to provide efficient and practical advice. Our experienced solicitors will be able to help you administer the estate quickly and the beneficiaries will be able to receive their inheritance in a timely manner.
